ACT has Mitchell by 2.

The poll on ncpreps.

All have Mitchell.

Can we say Mitchell is the favorite now?

You can tell if Mitchell loses these guys are going explode. Robbinsville fans have it made. Robbinsville wasn't supposed to be here. If we lose tonight it's been a very good season considering how young we are and the fact we wasn't even picked to win SMC. Some thought 3 or 4 win season. What I do know is you better watch out the next two seasons.
No if I remember correctly y’all lost to Murphy last year and you disappeared for a good 3 months. If y’all lose this time how long will it take you to emerge from your moms basement
 
A quote from the Mountaineers Facebook page....

"We want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to Western Sizzlin for taking good care of the Mountaineers this afternoon for the Pregame Meal. They are always amazing supporters!!

Been lots of talk on the message boards about eating at the "Sizzlin" this evening. I hope the Mountaineers leave some behind!!! 🏈💜🏈💜🏈"

Probably my final comment before game time. I'll say this: Robbinsville is the favorite amongst those "in the know", there's no question. Robbinsville fans know they are the favorite. The Knights have a better RB, better QB, better kicker, more seasoned coach. The only advantage I see that Mitchell has is home field. I honestly can't say who's line is better, or who's defensive secondary is better. Neither team looked like they would make it this far 8 weeks ago, but here they are. They had to get here somehow, whether it was on skill, coaching, or just dumb luck. Robbinsville has already proved that they can come from behind and win, Mitchell not so much. For the Mountaineers to win this game they will have to strike first, score on every possession, and get a turnover or 2. And while the boys in black likely won't be fazed by it, our crowd will have to really get up and make some noise. Get behind our boys and hopefully keep their blood pumping. Safe travels to all the Robbinsville faithful, and those curious onlookers from all over the state. Good luck to the Mountaineers, you boys have over achieved this season, and have represented our little corner of NC well.
Mitchell 28
Robbinsville 24
 
Who are the ppl in the know?
The folks on here have Mitchell as the favorite. They have a poll that shows it.
Just curious who they are?

The Murphy loss was terrible. Robbinsville was the favorite and should of won. Murphy had other plans. If Mitchell wins I will be on here. Nice season for probably the youngest team in the playoffs. I don't see any shame in losing this game as long as we try.

Who's the home team next week?
I think it's the west turn.

Good luck to both teams. IM pulling for robbinsville because they represent the SMC but it won't be an easy win. I will agree with you that robbinsville has the edge at running back, not so sure at the QB. Mitchell QB is good at what he does. Line wise I give the edge to robbinsville, DB's is hard to tell. Robbinsville has struggled defensively this year in coverage, but seemed to get it straightened out last week against Murphy. Which ever team pulls it out I will be pulling for them at state next week. GO CATS!!

I was just messing with you bk. I enjoy your banter on here!

I don’t know bk….u guys better get it done this year. Tarboro will be stronger next year. So will Mt. Airy, and probably Mtn Heritage too. Eastern Randolph will learn from the Murphy loss and will probably be a different animal the next time an SMC team rolls into their parking lot. Don’t put off til tomorrow what you can do today.
 
It used to be around 625ish, it's a little higher now due to the new formula they are using. Mitchell has been pretty consistent in the 480 range for several years now. I think we may actually be lower than that this year.
 
Just wondering what’s the enrollment cutoff for 1a
Hard question to answer. East and West have different cutoffs. Plus they now go by "realignment score," which is enrollment with multipliers based on Wells Fargo Cup performance and "ISP" (basically the percentage of the student body that is on assistance). In the west, the biggest 1As are Carver and Eastern Randolph in the 675 range. In the east, Bertie is the biggest 1A at 603. But there are also schools smaller than those that went 2A because of the other factors. There are some charter schools that went 2A with numbers around 500. I put a link where you can look at and filter all the date below.

Oh no, don’t bring up numbers on this thread 😂
I was just wondering. TN is having their State Championship today and tomorrow at UTC. Alcoa just won their 7 straight 45-14 today 20th overall. They would almost be 1a in NC.

It all depends on how many students you can get into prep school, early college, and detention classes

I think Tennessee has six classes though. I may be wrong

Just noticed on Mountaineers Facebook page in the comments that High School Kickoff streaming service is advertising they're broadcasting the game. Has anyone here ever created a free account on there? If I remember correctly though "free" they ask for credit or debit card information.

East Surry was at 588 and went 2A
 
Seems like most or picking Mitchell .Think Robbinsville will surprise a lot of people .
If a school known for winning state championships, a team that has won 8 straight including beating handly one of the teams that beat them earlier in the year beats a team they beat last the spring , yeah boy that would be a real shocker 🙃
